Perhaps Tempelman could commercialize the demise of the Flevobike.
Imagine they would shoot an instruction video while their mechanic
goes through every step of building a new flevobike. Then throw in
some plans and burn it all on a dvd (Tempelman must have accurate
plans). Sell the dvd to everyone who wants to build himself a
flevobike as a diy-project. This would be a nice ending/continuation
of the flevobike story since it all started as a classroom project.
